On Motion to Recommit with Instructions: H R 3523 To provide for the sharing of certain cyber threat intelligence and cyber threat information between the intelligence community and cybersecurity entities, and for other purposes

Amendment sought to expand eligibility to participate in the voluntary information sharing program created in the bill to include critical infrastructure owners and operators, which allows entities that are not entirely privately owned, such as airports, utilities, and public transit systems, to receive vital cybersecurity information and better secure their networks against cyber threats.

Amendment limits government use of shared cyber threat information to only 5 purposes: (1) cybersecurity; (2) investigation and prosecution of cybersecurity crimes; (3) protection of individuals from the danger of death or physical injury; (4) protection of minors from physical or psychological harm; and (5) protection of the national security of the United States.

Amendment prohibits the federal government from using library and book records, information on gun sales, tax records, educational records and medical records that it receives from private entities under CISPA.

Amendment provides authority to the Federal Government to create reasonable procedures to protect privacy and civil liberties, consistent with the need of the Government to protect federal systems and cybersecurity and would also prohibit the Federal Government from retaining or using information shared pursuant to paragraph (b)(1) for anything other than a use permitted under the bill.

Amendment adds a requirement to include a list of all federal agencies receiving information shared with the government in the report by the Inspector General of the Intelligence Community required under the legislation.

An amendment numbered 11 printed in House Report 112-454 to clarify that nothing in the bill would alter existing authorities or provide new authority to any federal agency, including DOD, NSA, DHS or the Intelligence Community to install, employ, or otherwise use cybersecurity systems on private sector networks.

An amendment numbered 5 printed in House Report 112-454 to authorize the Secretary to intercept and deploy countermeasure with regard to system traffic for cybersecurity purposes in effect identification of cybersecurity risks to federal systems.

Amendment sought to make explicit that nothing in the legislation would prohibit a department or agency of the federal government from providing cyber threat information to owners and operators of critical infrastructure.
